She is home, my mother, not the cat. Have had steam coming out of my ears most of today but calming down now.
Right, so, i drop DD off at play school - go to her house, take my dog let them tire each other out in the garden. Totally clean her downstairs (believe me that was some feat- it stank of cat food, i had to take my oil burner with me ). Hoovered three times to try and get rid of the smell. Did two loads of washing. Washing up etc. At eleven picked up message that she could come home, realised the time, ran to pick DD up - phoned DP, could he come home so we can pick mother up. Get to playschool, DD doesn't want to come home , its only her first week . DD promptly peddles off on her bike, smack bang into a waiting buggy and face into a fence - broke bike, had to carry bike and cajole wailing child the 20 minute walk home. She sees DP who is walking up to meet us, charges off, it becomes apparent she wont be stopping at the road, so i have to drop coats, bags and bikes and belt off after her, only to have her have major tantrum and throw herself down on the road - Daddy blamed me . Ok, so go round to my mothers, collect some clothes, i dont kow what to get - pick up loads of dog shit from her garden, break her washing line so have to carkt all the washing to my house.
Getting in car to fetch her, DD STILL grisling. Gets a phone call, its my mother - "What are you fucking doing, ive been waiting here all morning like an idiot" me" i told the nurse i will be over when i pick DD up". "well you should have arranged for someone else to pick her up " Then she bollocks me for not taking the right clothes and insists on leaving hospital in her nightie. She calms down on journey home - tells us that the woman in the next bed died , i was talking to her last night and she was supposed to be going home today.
So, gets home to her nice clean house, she starts poking around, "this shouldnt be here, that shouldn't be there" FFS!!! Then, we have resort to muck donalds for lunch, DD doesnt eat it. Get home, walk to the town, she rings can i get xyz, yes, rings again, can i get abc - ok. So, i come back, she has emptied her hoover took all the filter to bits , i have made it smell , no her fucking filthy cats have made it smell. I don't rise to it. Then, she tells me she has no cough mixture, go to chemist, get back, this is at 4.30 and i STILL haven't had a cup of tea yet today - "oh, the dogs going mad to go out........... Off i go with the dog, thankfully she watches DD for me.
After all this, do you think she has said thankyou??? NOT ON YOUR NELLY - she did say, "oh, i do appreciate it, but i really would have preffered if you had left it, i like to clean myself" The fucking house was a health hazard!!!.
As i left she pushed £20 into my hand - i would have preferred a simple thank you!!!
Fecking woman - she sounds awful doesnt she, she isn't really, she is actually really good to us and helps out financially, but i really had to get that rant off my chest
arrrrrghhhhhhhhhh - it will be wine o'clock soon.
